Narrow sashing looks fine. I would not RIP IT.

I think the sashing adds alot to the quilt. Just my simple opinion.

The sashing looks great adds another dimension to the pattern ,which adds to it's beauty.

I would leave off the sashing *because* setting the blocks side-by-side creates a minor secondary pattern that gives the eye yet another design to look at. Sashing stops the action every time, in my opinion.

The colors are great and I like the top picture a lot.:)

Love the colors!

I agree with Jan about the secondary pattern (is that what makes it a D4P?) because it causes the eye to search.

However, after looking back several times at your pictures, the sashing makes such a clean-cut look and that is pleasing to my eyes. I think either way it will a very pretty quilt.

I am a dissenter also. I wouldn't use the sashing in this one. But if you like it, then go for it. This quilt is beautiful
as it is. I love the colors and the design.

Really dynamic...love the sashing...would love to see your borders when finished.

I think that your sashing makes the blocks 'pop'. I wouldn't change.
